About
Hey! I'm Janie, owner and head trainer of Loon Dog Training. I have loved dogs ever since I was a young girl. My passion for dog training started with my dog Luna and knowing how much happier my life and hers has been since having a well trained dog. Her nickname, Loon, is where the name Loon Dog Training began (along with being the Minnesota state bird).
​
I have been training dogs for the past 6 years, and in 2023 I decided to open my own business. The purpose of Loon Dog Training is to create a balanced and healthy relationship for both owners and their dogs. I want to help your dog become the best version they can be.
​
Training and advocating for dogs is a passion of mine and I can't wait to be part of your dog training journey!
Our Philosophy
At Loon Dog Training, we apply a balanced training approach to create a happy and healthy relationship between owners and their dogs. We have great success by building a clear communication with dogs while using tools including e-collars, prong collars, and slip leads. Through play, toys, food, and praise, we establish structure for safe boundaries. We develop a clear understanding by using both 'yes' and 'no' to help dogs know what is being asked.
